Default Deep Purple.....

I'm talking about the band, not the color. :p:

Ever since, I've been driving my C3 more and doing mods and posting pics in the C3 section I realized something.

I'm now listening to classic rock again. I even caught myself loading up the Disc Magazine in my work car with Deep Purple, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, CCR, etc. :yesnod:

What's going on ? :lol:

Just don't get carried away cutting out your center dash console trim plate to install that 8 track player so you can play all your old tapes!!! That piece for '68's costs about $300 to replace.;)

My 13 year old son was smiling to ear to ear when he figured out how to play "Smoke on the Water" on his guitar. I think that same tune was what my guitar playing friends all tried to imitate when I was a kid.

The more things change, the more they stay the same (except for classic music which is timeless!!)

Slip a little Aerosmith and Metallica in there, and It'd be a good mix for me.

My daily driver must be getting to me. I put in my Tone Loc CD (left over from 80s).
I need my vette back !! :cry

:iagree: It's gotta be old Aerosmith though!!! I think they sold out on their latest stuff. "Draw the Line" is literally where I draw the line.

That is what I have heard. I'll never forget how disappointed I was when they released their first single after Sammy joined the band. I was so stoked to hear them, I mean we are talking Van Halen and The Red Rocker and the I heard the stupid syn on "why can't this be love'
